I’m happy with this product. Like most people I spend a lot of time using my phone. During the day and at night when it’s time to just relax. This makes that night time relaxing mode easier on the fingers and hands. I’ve been noticing my pinky fingers are getting sore from holding the phone while I surf the web on my phone. With this device one can actually watch videos, scroll through tons of things using one’s phone without having to actually hand hold the phone and not be tied to one’s desk.It’s a little heavy at first use, but you’ll get used to it. Your neck is stronger than your finger tips.Now one can enjoy the use of one’s phone while lounging on the bed, sofa or even just to have it hanging on your neck to clear your hands while doing other things. It’s brilliant. And so easy to adjust! It’s sturdy yet flexible.

Life changing for watching in bed, or playing in bed if you have games that have controller support!!! The bendy thing is heavy duty, in a great way. Very solid. The phone holder part is plastic, but it’s not bad. Be careful adjusting the bendy part while it’s connected to the plastic, as it might over-power it and break the plastic. Grip is good, magnetic part is good, excellent quality for the price. Also, because the bendy part is so solid, it’s very stable. The bendy bit is nice and long, so it fits well.

So, I guess I had visions of this being far more portable.It's basically a long heavy metal flexible tube (think of those "flex" neck, sometimes called goose neck, lamps) and, at the ends, you can attach (via magnets) the phone holder piece, which is just a spring loaded sliding clamp.A simple idea, but effective since you can bend the flexible bar into any shape you want.I was mainly looking for something hands-free for laying in bed.My sleep schedule sometimes doesn't work so well, and so I occasionally find myself awaiting slumber, while watching something on my phone -- I have a great phone (OnePlus 6T) and the generous, beautiful screen and excellent sound quality do make for a terrific entertainment device but it cramps up my hand after a while.Perils of the modern age I guess, but my thumb joints actually get lasting pain from holding the phone, even transferring it from hand to hand.I thought this would be lightweight, easily stowed and could even be transportable, so I was a bit shocked at how heavy the box was, in which it arrived.So, the trade off of it being a sturdy product strong enough to hold today's larger phones is that it's a fairly beefy bit of hardware.This means it takes up some space when not in use, and is not something I'm likely to take with me, traveling, since it is weighty and a bit awkward to lumber around.But, on the plus side, it does hold my phone securely.The simple slide clamp on the holder keeps a good grip, and, since you can shape the flexible tube yourself, to suit your need, it's easy to get it set up to where it does what you want, although it does take up some room.I did not want to wear it behind my head, as it showed in some of the photos, so I shaped it so it just sits on my chest, perfect for laying down and watching a movie or whatever.Phone stays upright, and I can place it where I want for ideal viewing.It seems well made, and appears it will last.I only knocked off a star due to the cumbersome nature of the device.It can't easily be stowed and it would be a drag to dismantle it and roll it up every time after use, not to mention it takes a bit of fiddling to get it in just the right shape, so it's going to be easier to leave it just ready to use, under my bed for now.I would not see it as useful to wear around my neck, due to the weight of it, and it does not seem portable enough for many of the uses noted in photos.On a side note, I have seen these kinds of "flex" tubes lose their flex with constant use.Hopefully, this device is immune to that failure, but it's another reason I don't want to roll it up and re-position it over and over again.So, it's a bit of a static phone holder, more than a truly versatile item.And, in terms of the holder itself, I would not trust the magnets to keep the phone clip piece attached, with the weight of a phone in it, for the other kinds of uses shown in the photos, like on a bike.It would be an expensive failure if the holder came loose, and the magnets, while sturdy, don't give confidence to keep the holder secured to the metal flex tube under all conditions, in my opinion.For me, it wasn't quite what I thought, but will serve the main purpose, so I'd just say consider the weight and bulk of it, when factoring in your decision to buy or not.I can recommend it, but only for uses where it truly would function ideally.Thanks for reading.Hope this helps.:)
